No bake peanut butter and dark chocolate energy bites

These peanut butter and chocolate energy bites are the bomb. Healthy and perfect for on the go.

What can I say about these peanut butter and chocolate energy bites but that they are just simply fantastic. Super convenient to eat and to make and super nutritious for you as well :-)

As a matter of fact, before going to the gym this morning I just grabbed three peanut butter and chocolate energy bites, as I didn’t have time to eat breakfast, rather convenient these little things :-)

You can have as many variations as you like with these no bake energy bites. Adding dry fruit, more or less of any other ingredients or even chopped nuts etc would be just fine. These energy bites are really versatile. Just make sure you keep them in the fridge as they may soften way too much and disintegrate otherwise!

Anyhow, I hope you get to try these little peanut butter and chocolate energy bites. Not only they are convenient and nutritious but they are super easy to make.

Enjoy!!

Here you can see the before and after mixing all of the ingredients. It is just that simple!!

These little no bake energy bites don’t have to be perfect and you can make them whatever size you prefer as well. Mine were about bite size but you can make them bigger if you wish, less rolling :-)

You can add what ever you like to these no bake energy bites. Dry fruit and chopped nuts will go great in them. You can come up with your own little creation. Making these with kids is lots of fun.

In the ingredients you refer to brown rice cereal, what exactly do you mean by that? I ask because I’m in Australia and what you are callin oatmeal we call rolled oats, so I just wanted to check what it was before I started. Thanks

This looks really yummy! Does anyone have a suggestion for something I could use in place of peanut butter? I know that would likely change the purpose of the treat, but I have a metabolic disorder (PKU) that requires my eating a low protein diet. I’ve been looking for a granola-type recipe that I could convert, and this might work if I can find a low protein substitute for the peanut butter. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

I was going to suggest almond butter but that wouldn’t work either. How about you make a mixture of nutella, like 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup and pitted dates previous pureed? That may work however I think it will be awfully sweet. Apple sauce I don’t think it would work bc it is to liquid like. I am lost for ideas………if I think of anything else I will let you know.

Not sure if I am doing something wrong, but I can’t get these to roll into balls. They just keep falling apart. I left out the powdered cocoa & cut back on the honey., aside from that I followed the recipe.

It could be due to the honey. If you like add some liquid like milk if you don’t want to add the honey. You need some sort of liquid to bring the ingredients together. I hope this helps. Thanks for stopping by.
